All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

(a) All payments made by Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction for or on account of, Indemnified Taxes, excluding (i) Indemnified Taxes measured by Lender’s net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which Lender is resident or organized, or any political subdivision thereof, (ii) taxes measured by Lender’s overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction of Lender’s applicable lending office or any political subdivision thereof or in which Lender is resident or engaged in business, and (iii) withholding taxes imposed by the United States of America, any state, commonwealth, protectorate territory or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein as a result of the failure of Lender which is a Non-U.S. Entity to comply with the terms of paragraph (b) below. If any non excluded Indemnified Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to Lender, the amounts so payable to Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Lender (after payment of all non excluded Indemnified Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rate or in the amounts specified hereunder. Whenever any non excluded Indemnified Tax is payable pursuant to Applicable Law by Borrower, Borrower shall send to Lender an original official receipt showing payment of such non excluded Indemnified Tax or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby indemnifies Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Lender which may result from any failure by Borrower to pay any such non excluded Indemnified Tax when due to the appropriate taxing authority or any failure by Borrower to remit to Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence.

Each entity required to deliver to Borrower a Form W 8BEN or W 8ECI pursuant to the preceding sentence further undertakes to deliver to Borrower two further copies of such forms, or successor applicable forms, or other manner of certification, as the case may be, on or before the date that any such form expires (which, in the case of the Form W 8ECI, is the last day of each U.S. taxable year of the Non-U.S. Entity) or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to Borrower, and such other extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be requested by Borrower, certifying in the case of a Form W 8BEN or W 8ECI that such entity is entitled to receive payments under the Note without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless in any such case an event (including, without limitation, any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such entity from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such entity advises Borrower that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower hereby irrevocably empowers Lender, in the name of Borrower as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, to file and prosecute such claim and to collect and to make receipt for any such payment, to the extent Borrower has such right to do so under the JV Agreement.

Lender may participate in any such proceedings, and Borrower shall from time to time exercise any rights it may have under the JV Agreement to cause Mortgage Borrower to deliver to Lender all instruments requested by Lender to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, exercise any rights it may have under the JV Agreement to cause Mortgage Borrower to diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings.

Section 8.2 Remedies.
(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time during the continuance of such Event of Default, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to all or any part of any Individual Property or any other Collateral. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by Applicable Law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all Liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Collateral and the Collateral has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full.
(b) With respect to Borrower and the Collateral, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to any Collateral for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in preference or priority, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of
- 65 -
the Collateral or any other collateral or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. In addition, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose upon the Collateral in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Pledge Agreement then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose upon the Collateral to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Lender may foreclose upon the Collateral to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Pledge Agreement as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Collateral shall remain subject to the Pledge Agreement to secure payment of sums secured by the Pledge Agreement and not previously recovered.
(c) Lender shall have the right, from time to time, to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, pledges and other security documents (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) Business Days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. The Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the Closing Date.
(d) Any amounts recovered from the Collateral after an Event of Default may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any interest and/or principal of the Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall determine.
Section 8.3 Right to Cure Defaults.
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, make any payment or do any act required of Borrower hereunder in such manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary to protect the security hereof. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period after notice from Lender that such cost or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Lender. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate shall be deemed

to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by the liens, claims and security interests provided to Lender under the Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefor.
Section 8.4 Remedies Cumulative; Waivers.
The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one or more Defaults or Events of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.
Section 8.5 Power of Attorney.
For the purpose of carrying out the provisions and exercising the rights, powers and privileges granted in this Section 8, Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to execute, acknowledge and deliver any instruments and do and perform any acts such as are referred to in this subsection in the name and on behalf of Borrower. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked.

Borrower shall not impede, interfere with, hinder or delay, and shall exercise any rights it may have under the JV Agreement to cause Mortgage Borrower to not impede, interfere with, hinder or delay, any effort or action on the part of Lender to cure any default or asserted default under the Mortgage Loan, or to otherwise protect or preserve Lender’s interests in the Loan and the Collateral following a default or asserted default under the Mortgage Loan.
- 70 -
(d) If Lender shall receive a copy of any notice of default under the Mortgage Loan Documents sent by Mortgage Lender to Mortgage Borrower, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender, in good faith, in reliance thereon.

Section 9.9 Independent Approval Rights.
If any action, proposed action or other decision is consented to or approved by Mortgage Lender, such consent or approval shall not be binding or controlling on Lender. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the risks of Mortgage Lender in making the Mortgage Loan are different from the risks of Lender in making the Loan, (ii) in determining whether to grant, deny, withhold or condition any requested consent or approval Mortgage Lender and Lender may reasonably reach different conclusions, and (iii) Lender has an absolute independent right to grant, deny, withhold or condition any requested consent or approval based on its own point of view. Further, the denial by Lender of a requested consent or approval shall not create any liability or other obligation of Lender if the denial of such consent or approval results directly or indirectly in a default under the Mortgage Loan, and Borrower hereby waives any claim of liability against Lender arising from any such denial.

All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so.
Section 10.17 Publicity.
All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or their Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to Lender, or any of their Affiliates shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate
- 78 -
of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies.

[Participant]
Re: | [Loan Information] |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned understands that, pursuant to that certain Participation and Servicing Agreement, dated as of [ ] [ ], 201 (the “Participation Agreement”), you are purchasing from [ ] (“Lender”), a participation interest in that certain mezzanine loan (the “Loan”) originated by Lender to [ ] (“Borrower”), the indirect owner of certain real property located at and more particularly described in the Participation Agreement. The Loan is evidenced by a certain promissory note, dated as of [ ], 201 , made by Borrower, as maker, in favor of Lender, as payee, and is secured by, inter alia, that certain Pledge Agreement, dated as of [ ], 201 , between Borrower and Lender (the “Pledge Agreement”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this letter shall have the meanings set forth in the Pledge Agreement.
You have asked us to provide this letter to you in connection with the provision of management rights for purposes of the Department of Labor “plan assets” regulation, 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101.
This letter will confirm the agreement among Borrower, Lender and you (the “Junior Participant”) pursuant to which the Junior Participant will be entitled to certain rights in connection with the Loan. The undersigned acknowledges that whenever reference is made herein to the “Junior Participant,” such term shall be deemed to include any other holder of a participation or sub-participation interest entitled to exercise the rights of the Junior Participant under the Participation Agreement.
Upon written request of Lender and/or Junior Participant and upon reasonable advance notice, Junior Participant and/or Lender shall have the right to consult with management of Borrower once each quarter on significant business issues (collectively, the “Property and Management Information”), and Borrower will make itself available once each quarter either personally at the office of Borrower or Borrower’s property manager (as selected by Borrower) or by telephone, in each case at mutually agreeable times for such consultation with Lender. Such consultation need not result in any change in Borrower’s course of action, and Borrower may take any course of action Borrower determines in Borrower’s sole discretion, subject to the limitations of the Loan Documents.
Lender and Junior Participant hereby acknowledge and agree that Borrower will not be required to have separate quarterly consultations with Lender, Junior Participant or any other
Person(s) holding a participation interest in the Loan, but will only be required to make itself available once each quarter for a consultation with Lender, Junior Participant and such other Person(s) holding a participation interest in the Loan at the same time and at the location specified above.
Junior Participant agrees that all Property and Management Information relating to Borrower which is provided to Junior Participant shall be kept confidential by Junior Participant and shall not, without the prior consent of Borrower, be disclosed by Junior Participant except as provided herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Property and Management Information may be disseminated (a) pursuant to the requirements of applicable law, (b) pursuant to judicial process, administrative agency process or order of Governmental Authority, (c) to Junior Participant’s consultants, attorneys, accountants, advisors, auditors, regulators and actual or prospective financing sources, (d) to the Rating Agencies, (e) to actual or prospective trustees, assignees, pledgees, Junior Participants, agents, servicers and securities holders in a Securitization, (f) investors in Junior Participant and (g) pursuant to the requirements or rules of a stock exchange or stock trading system on which the securities of Junior Participant or its affiliates may be listed or traded.
The rights granted to Junior Participant hereunder are not in substitution for, and shall not be deemed to be in limitation of, any rights otherwise available to Lender and/or Junior Participant under the Loan Documents.
